Bull Shoals Lake is a man-made lake or reservoir built by damming White River in the Ozark Mountains, spanning from Arkansas’s northern border through southern Missouri. It branches into hundreds of lake arms and coves encompassed by a 1000-mile (1609.34-kilometer) forest-filled shoreline. Its clear waters allow extraordinary underwater visibility, which is excellent for scuba diving, and referred to as “The Caribbean of the Midwest.” Fishing is the most popular aquatic activity in the area, as well as skiing, wakeboarding, and boating. If you’re more into land-based activities, you can explore the park areas surrounding the lake, which provide hiking, biking, camping, and picnic spots. With so many outdoor activities and open spaces, Bull Shoals Lake is one of Arkansas’s most recognized lake destinations that is ideal for pet parents. If you’re visiting with your fur babies, read on to discover the top pet-friendly cabins near Bull Shoals Lake, Arkansas.
